“Josie” Always an overachiever! 😂
Woody’s owner came to train with us yesterday and gave his boy a test drive! This pup has made huge gains over the past few months and we couldn’t be more excited about this dudes future!
Crue pups coming soon!!!
Yesterday marked the time for this group of young dogs to go home to their owners and get ready to hit the field soon! All owners came out to work with their dogs and they all did awesome! 👏
We can’t wait to see all of the success these owners and their dogs will have this hunting season! Thank you for trusting us with your retrievers and allowing us to be a part of many memories to come!
I’ve heard it said before that a trainer is only as good as the people that help them. This definitely holds true with my assistant Carlos! He goes above and beyond every day and never ask for anything in return. Carlos started out as a client and then wanted to help out occasionally after retiring from the military. Then he went from helping a couple days a week to the one person I count on most at the kennel. If you’ve had the pleasure of meeting him, you can’t help but like him! He’s gonna kill me for sneaking this pic and posting but I’ve got to give credit where it’s due. You’re more than an assistant, you’re a brother and thank you so much for all you do!
Six years later and still the coolest kid at the lake! 😎
Big marks require big focus! 👀
Had an awesome day of training with good friend and fellow trainer, Landon Poplin with Wirehair Outdoors! We did some challenging water work and all of the dogs did fantastic!
I’m so proud of this pup! We slipped away from the kennel Saturday to H Cooper Black and ran Willie in his first HRC Seasoned Test and he crushed it! 💪🏻 We can’t wait til the fall season and looking forward to having a lot more young dogs running test!
Thank you to the CBSRC for an awesome test and to all of the judges, volunteers and club members for making it such a success!
Here’s one fine group of beginner gundogs! This crew is doing phenomenal with their yard work and will be hitting the field soon!
The advanced dogs are back and we’ve hit the ground running! 🏃 We can’t wait to see how they develop in the next few months!
Happy 7th Birthday to Windchime’s High Caliber MH “Cali”! She’s the queen bee at River Roan Kennels and one of the most talented dogs I’ve ever trained. She’s given us 7 years of great memories and we look forward to many more to come!
Everyone meet “Rosco”! He came to us for some puppy intro work and we couldn’t be more excited for his future. This good looking pup is sired by our very own “Crue”. He’s definitely a chip of the old block! At only 5 months old, this pup is already holding point, retrieving and honoring like a champ! Be on the lookout for him in the future because this dudes gonna be a rockstar!🤘🏻
What a great way to finish up the 2024 AKC Hunt Test Season at the Armenia Winds Pointing Breeds Club! “Winston” & “Tess” both put all of their hard work to the test and competed their AKC Master Titles on the same weekend! These two dog are some incredible animals and I’m beyond blessed to have the opportunity to work with them!
Big THANK YOU to all of the judges, club members and volunteers for all of their hard work and putting on another awesome event!

“Hank” & “Vader” This duo is getting it done at the coast!
One of our 2022 grads “Weston” keeping his eyes on the sky! He’s been putting in work with season!
This was one heck of a week for this group of young dogs! There were a lot of light bulbs that went off and big advancements in training! I can’t wait to see what the next few weeks have in store for them!
From All Of Us At River Roan Kennels, Merry Christmas And Happy New Year!
